I don't get the "bi-racial" one. They're both supposed to be rabbits, right?

Oh wait, they're wearing each other's parts from two separate bunny costumes.

is that a lol about something specific or did u just look out the window while daydreaming and think 'lol burning man'

No, it's just going on now and it's just lol in my opinion. I can think of very few places I'd less want to be at less.

I am being mean. If this is what floats their boats then more power to them. I will, however, reserve the right to rme a little because c'mon now.
― (✿◠‿◠) (ENBB), Tuesday, 4 September 2012 18:23 (eleven years ago) link
haha I just realized that they meant the actual word "playa" and not the in-vogue mispronunciation of "player"
or... DID THEY?????????

lol iirc playa is what they call the area on which the event is held so it means their names while in that space. It's a lot funnier when read the other way though.

one of my roommates is into this but this year she just went to a "burning log" which i guess is a local splinter for people who don't have $400 or whatever to spend on going to a party

playa is a geological/geographic term guys
― chicago rap twitter luminary (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 4 September 2012 19:02 (eleven years ago) link
which is why i said it was the area on which the event is held

xp to Shakey Mo
As DJP so aptly pointed out, it's a double bonus word. Except it is not known whether the playa-on-words was intentional.
― Aimless, Tuesday, 4 September 2012 19:08 (eleven years ago) link
Shakey, what part of "oh right, they meant the real actual word" made you think I didn't know what a playa is?

haha that's exactly what I was thinking! I mean because it just sounds a little sad. They should just call it a campfire party or something new altogether.
